Jan. 6 pardons, reaction to excessive prosecutions and sentences.

 MOST HAVE SERVED 4 YEARS, ENOUGH?

RIGHTS DENIED , EXCESSIVE TARGETED PROSECUTIONS

While the Jan. 6 protests turned riots were indeed a unique event in American history, after several years of riots and terrorist activity by Black lives matter and Antifa, when most were congratulated for their passion and often bailed out by Democrat politicians, it should have not have been a surprise. The precedent for this behaviour was often orchestrated and condoned by Democrats.

First, this was never an attempt to overthrow the election or the government. It may have been an attempt to delay the certification of this election, and this was in response to the failure of the legal system to address the many questions and controversies of the 2020 election. One has to be a partisan denier to deny that this election was fraught with irregularities and indications of widespread fraud.

That being said, some did indeed break the law and deserved prosecution, but I doubt if it was ever 1600 people. Many were just in attendance and were prosecuted just for being there. Many were held in solitary confinement for months before charges were actually filed, denying them their constitutional rights. There were still people who were being targeted for the fact that they were in attendance.

Some of these people were sentenced to decades of confinement and most all were handed down excessive sentences for the crimes. It was without a doubt selective enforcement and selective sentences. It was because they were Trump supporters in Washington D.C. it is clear the message was, they should no better than to enter the domain of the National government.

So, Trump pardoned most all of them, some will have their sentences commuted, it is true that they were part of an opportunity for community punishment for those that oppose the establishment. It is doubtful that any have gotten off easy, many of their lives ruined and families destroyed. Their pradons were just an attempt for community justice.

Of course, we see the left still do not believe they have got their pound of flesh, and some would have supported the death penalty for all. Get over it, I expect you will have more immediate things to complain about in the near future.
